Product Information

For the brownies: I happen to like these dark cakey brownies, but you can swap in your favorite brownie or chocolate cake recipe. A box mix works great, too! No judgment here. The powdered sugar glaze gets into all of the intricate crevices of the mold (those teeth!), making the skulls have this eery old-and-dead feeling to them. The glaze could not be easier. You need three ingredients that are whisked together: Vampires! Melt chocolate and color it purple. Then dip the berries, coating them in melted purple chocolate. After, use melted chocolate and white chocolate to dress them up as vampires!

Green candy coating: I recommend using Wilton Vibrant Green Candy Coating. If you can’t find it, you can also use white candy coating and add food coloring to achieve a nice green shade. These Halloween themed strawberries aren’t the only thing that will taste delicious this October! Spider Cakes and Frankenstein Rice Krispie Treats are sure to both be hits while also being super easy to make! Red Candy Melts: a MUST for getting that bright red blood color! I used these red candy melts by Wilton. strawberries(about 8g each; I used white strawberries. But I think red strawberries would actually look better in this recipe.) I like to do a bit of clean up at this point…. wiping away any excess chocolate that is outside of the cavity. When you put the two sides together, you want them to be as seamless as possible….And if you love cakes with cake fillings, you've also got to try my amazing Blueberry Cake, Lemon Curd Cake, and my moist Vanilla Bean Cake with Raspberry Filling. 🍰 Cake Ingredients I really don't encourage y'all to buy much of anything because I truly believe in a minimalist kitchen, but these mini skulls are so cute and the mini skull cakelet pan is such good quality. I AM IN LOVE. IN LOVE. This is not sponsored, but Nordic Ware always has high-quality ish. Yes, you're paying a decent amount for the pan, but it'll last far beyond the pandemic for many more Halloween celebrations. How do I know when the meringue is ready? Stop the mixer and dip the whisk attachment into the meringue. Lift up and if the peaks are completely straight up without bending at the tip, then it is ready!

Not all of the best desserts in Las Vegas are found in the fancy restaurants the city is known for. Some are simple, delicious, and perfect, just like the famous Cereal Milk Ice cream at the Milk Bar in Cosmopolitan Las Vegas. Strawberry jelly: This is the secret to giving the brains that realistic shine! Any fairly smooth jelly will work. Everyone loves a good piece of cake. But have you ever had a strawberry-filled vanilla layer cake? It's absolutely delicious! In fact, it might be one of the best cakes you've ever had. I know for a fact this was one of my most popular bakery recipes at Amycakes Bakery! Jump to:Step 6: Take the mixture off of the simmering water and place in your stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, or use a hand mixer. Whisk on medium-high speed for 10-15 minutes until you have a stiff, glossy meringue. When you touch the sides of the bowl it will be room temperature and no longer warm. If it's too hot outside it might take up to 20 minutes! I would have loved to make sugar skulls but we didn’t have a mold to make these so I decided to come up with my own version. I dipped strawberries in white chocolate and decorated them to make white chocolate strawberry skulls. These made the perfect addition to our Day of the Dead party menu and the kids loved them, they are also a lot healthier than a skull made of solid sugar. I adore Halloween. I think it’s because Halloween is the only holiday where my creative side really comes out.I love coming up with a creative costume, and I especially love pumpkin carving.In fact, Eric and I decorated and carved six pumpkins the first year we were married!My all time favorite part of Halloween, though, is creating spooky, gruesome and delicious foods. It’s just not Halloween for me without creepy (and sometimes disgusting) looking treats. Stir in your essential oil/vanilla powder and pour into the separate indentations of the mould, filling them only about just under 1/3 of the way. You might want to leave the chocolate for 5-10 minutes before transferring into your freezer to set as sometimes it can just be hard to manoeuvre without spilling! Once in the freezer leave for 15 minutes until fully set. You know those Choco- Tacos you would enjoy as a kid and how good they tasted? Casa Playa offers a grown-up version of your favorite ice cream treat, and it’s unbelievably good!

Place all of your ingredients for the white chocolate except for the essential oil/vanilla powder into a small heatproof bowl. Place over a bain-marie on a low heat. Heat the ingredients until fully melted and make sure to stir frequently with a silicone spatula until fully combined. Remove from the heat and leave to cool for 5 minutes. Ghosts! First, dip the strawberries in melted white chocolate. Then use either chocolate sprinkles or melted chocolate to draw on the eyes and mouth. In a city like Las Vegas, it’s really challenging to narrow down the best in categories as broad as desserts. There are a handful of Las Vegas desserts that have caught our attention but might be a little too over the top, even for the most devoted dessert fan.Place a raspberry cube into both the top & bottom skull cavity. Cube should sit just below the edge… if not, gently push the cube into the cavity. Step 1: In a large mixing bowl or a stand mixer, combine the flour with the cocoa powder, sugar, baking soda, baking powder and salt until smooth. The chocolate cake is based off of my favorite chocolate cake while the strawberry filling is a homemade strawberry jam that I used in my vanilla cake recipe! Jump to: To prepare the pan for the batter, make sure you spray AND flour the pan. This will ensure the skulls come out without any issue. The flour also creates a marbley, spooky effect when it gets into the crevices even without the glaze. A Moist, Rich Chocolate Cake I'm adding my buttercream but the mixture is soupy! This is because the meringue didn't have enough time to cool down and it is melting the butter. The bowl should be cool to the touch before you add the butter. The butter might also be too warm, so the butter should be cool to the touch too before you add it! If you've added the butter and it's soupy, stop the mixer and place the mixing bowl in the fridge for 20 minutes, then try again.
